Dr. Andy Jones, a former resident of Kingsport and a graduate of
the University of Tennessee - Knoxville, has been named

Ornithological Society.

He was a youthful birder in high school at Kingsport and became
involved with BBC as a freshman at the University of Tennessee.
He was a recent speaker at the BBC's annual banquet and
recognized with a Stephen M. Russell Graduate Lectureship Award
from BBC in Sept 2005. The award honors outstanding doctorate
degree candidates in ornithology. He is the third candidate
honored by the program.

History in Cleveland, Ohio and the head of the museum's Department

famous Bell Museum of Natural History, Department of Ecology, Evolution,

ornithologists in this hemisphere. His molecular research publication of
tern phylogeny, has gained widespread recognition. His proposal for a
new genus of terns has been accepted by the South American Checklist
Committee (SACC).

Ornithological Society's first website. at Steele Creek Park
Nature Center in Bristol, TN.
The Ohio Cardinal is the journal of record for observers of Ohio's bird
life. For over twenty-five years this quarterly has presented extensive
organized reports of bird observations season by season. These records
now number over fifty thousand and form a substantial source of data for
the study of the abundance and distribution of the state avifauna.
We extend our congratulations to another great young biologist and
ornithologist from the Volunteer State.
Let's go birding.....
